Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a computer program for routing streams of traffic in IP networks, in particular in mobile IP networks, taking quality criteria into consideration.
  • FIG. 1 the process sequence of an end-terminal-based routing decision in accordance with the state of the art is illustrated as an example.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a new method with new rules and filter criteria for routing and filtering of streams of traffic in IP networks, in particular in mobile networks and a computer program for the carrying out of the new rules and filter criteria, in order to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art.
  • This problem is solved by the method claimed in Claim 1 .
  • This method is characterized by the fact that a plurality of streams of traffic to be transmitted is routed in such a way that they are transmitted in one carrier/context.
  • the transmission of the streams of traffic takes place in the process regardless of whether they must be differentiated with regard to destination network and/or QoS.
  • the transmission in one carrier/context takes place in particular on the air interface from the terminal to a network access node.
  • the local network access nodes of the network routs the streams of traffic with the help of rules and filter criteria to the correct destination.
  • Rules (Policy) and filter criteria can be statically or dynamically configured in the respective network or by another network.
  • FIG. 2 The invention is schematically represented in FIG. 2 and will be described in the following:
  • the data stream consisting of several different streams of traffic is conducted in one single context/carrier 7 to a local access node 4 .
  • a targeted delivery takes place for specific parts of the data stream to one of if necessary several network nodes of a first network 5 .
  • Other parts of the data stream are, on the basis of the posted rules and criteria, also guided to external access nodes 6 .
  • the rules and criteria posted on the network for the routing of the individual streams of traffic can comprise:
